Almost Passed Away From Covid
Don protégé
My name is Amy, and I hope to raise money for my monthly expenses. Unfortunately, I have not been able to pay them all because I can not work right now. I tested positive for covid in mid-December and needed to be hospitalized. I was put on a ventilator in early January and was on that for about three weeks. My family was told I only had a 5% of surviving. They had to perform a Tracheostomy on me so they could try to wean me off the ventilator slowly. I also had to get a chest tube because my lung collapsed. My father was also admitted to the same hospital and went on a ventilator when I was on mine. Sadly, my father did not make it and passed away while I was still under sedation. I am told it was a miracle I got better and was not told about my father for a few weeks while I recovered. I spent seventy-five days in the hospital and had to have help walking again. Finally, I went home. I am on oxygen and have not been able to return to work yet. I'm having a hard time paying my rent and monthly bills and of course I have some medical expenses not covered by my insurance. I have to get off of my oxygen and get my vaccine before I am able to work again and we do not know how long that will be.
